Marconi Union (Immersive Gig)

Marconi Union are one of the most popular ambient groups to emerge during the early 21st century. Since debuting with Under Wires and Searchlights in 2003, their music has touched on downtempo post-rock and ambient dub techno, as well as untethered, shimmering drone.

The group are best known for their 2011 composition Weightless, a collaboration with the British Academy of Sound Therapy designed to reduce stress. They have also collaborated with bassist Jah Wobble (on the 2013 album Anomic) and with Marina Abramovic Institute (Weightless/Endless 2015). Marconi Union have remixed composer Max Richter and been remixed by Biosphere and Steve Jansen (Japan). Brian Eno invited them to play at his Punkt festival in Norway. Their live performances are rare and quite special. With special guest Violeta Vicci.
